exploring the multiverses sound by sound and word by word
Story behind the song
story behind the song: what if the son of man had an evil twin brother who replaced him early? might it not explain a few things ... (or a look alike, or ahem a clone, all sorts of possibilities, maybe a group of novels, movies based on the different ones lol)
shimmeras= chimeras with more shimmy shake and sleight of hand, those things we are good at these days. and yes it is on purpose (i know i has issues with sill lab les and prunounseeation on occasion lol)
Lyrics
wonder what it would be like without christians
one less prophet for muslims, one less jew
wonder what it would be like in the middle east
no different than now? or a millenia or two?
wonder what it would be like without saint nick
and all those other saints along the way
don't think the world would be that much different
we are each our own monster every day
wonder if we would have done those things
in the name of the god we claimed
wonder if we would have made those swords ring
would another son of man take our shame
i can see him sitting there
sadly staring at us now
in that iron grasp of his father
wondering if the past could change somehow
we'd need another reason for hating
we'd need another reason to fight
so the ones on top can keep laughing
feeding those cravings we think are life
wonder why we always have to
baste our beliefs in blessed fears
even in "science" you can see this is true
creating shimmeras and ignoring years
wonder who would have done those things
in the name of the new son they claimed
wonder who would have made swords ring
would another son of man take our shame
i can see him sitting there
sadly staring at us now
in the gentiled folds of his father
wishing he had been still born somehow
wishing he had been still born somehow
wishing he had been still born somehow
wishing he had been still born somehow
wishing he had been still born
